"Awesome Company, Awesome People!"

What do you like best?

The Workboard group were great throughout the decision-making process of "which solution to purchase" and continued that excellent service/communication during the implementation phase. They were very responsive to any needs for training, coaching, etc. They "pushed" us just enough to take ownership internally maybe a little sooner than we would have on our own, but that was also great. We were actually ready because they had trained us so well. The overall approach to OKR's has made our company more aligned than we have been in quite some time.

What do you dislike?

This is not a direct reflection of Workboard, but it is just one more application to learn. Workboard has so many features, it just takes a fair amount of time to learn all of the capabilities and the best way to approach the specific task you are trying to complete. I'm sure this will get better as we become more familiar.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

I mentioned earlier, we are more aligned than ever from the top down, across business verticals. It's great to be able to see how Objectives in one business vertical overlap to another vertical and that we both have pieces of the project to meet an overall company objective.

"Workboard is the best tool for managing OKRs that are aligned to our strategic imperatives!"

What do you like best?

The Workboard tool is easy to use and provides all employees visibility of OKRs across the entire organization. The tool also allows you to align to OKRs above and below a specific org providing key insights into the metrics we use to measure our business. Setting "Best Possible" OKRs can be challenging but very rewarding, loving this tool and methodology.

What do you dislike?

The tool can sometimes be slow which can be frustrating. With that said, WorkBoard is constantly improving the tool and always accepts feature requests to help improve the overall user experience. The WorkBoard team is fantastic to work with and very responsive.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

The Workboard tool helps us align to the companies strategic objectives, providing visibility to all employees. The teams seem to be more connected than ever before and developing OKRs as a team and rolling up and aligning to your managers has provided us with insights we have never had before.

"Great "operating system" for leaders"

What do you like best?

I really like the systematic approach of setting objectives and key results on a quarterly basis, making the priorities of the organization transparent to everyone, seeing the progress as the quarter goes along, and then capturing lessons learned and repeating the cycle. It integrates strategy, prioritization, and operational needs in a way that makes sense to all employees. I also love that the team at WorkBoard are so helpful.

What do you dislike?

It isn't as intuitive as I'd like, so there is a bit of a learning curve.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

I drive my team crazy with ideas of new ways to do things, new initiatives, or new products to offer. Setting a limited number of truly "key" results provides clarity and focus for my team.

"Good platform that could have a smoother user experience with great customer service."

What do you like best?

i like that you can be flexible in how you measure KRs and can tie alignment up and down the department.

What do you dislike?

it's slow and hard to update things easily from the main team workspaces. i also wish the Full Alignment Report: Next Level Alignment was editable.

if a department has many teams you can only see the full alignment in the Next Level Alignment. each department and team workspaces are separate from each other.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

i would ask your WB customer service team for as much guidance as possible in the beginning when setting up OKRs.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

getting more aligned as an organization with what we are working on and why. better transparency across the whole department.
